what would happen if one of them somehow god rid of their worms, since from what i know the worms keep making them have to “feed” them by killing things so in a hypothetical situation where one does manage to do so, wouldn’t that just mean that they can bide their time instead of having to sustain an entire killing sistem? (this again comes from someone who doesnt know the lore and definitely not a vex)
Without the worms, Hive can only live for about ten years. So they can’t really bide their time that way.
The purpose of the Worm Pact was to trick the Hive. They helped the Worm Gods escape and set loose the Darkness.
Together they killed off an entire galaxy.
Eventually, when there is nothing left to kill, the Worm Pact will kill the Hive. As they can no longer feed their Worms and will be consumed by them.
The Winnower will likely take a crack at killing them at that point as well.
